Good point by Mr Mow - I had one of those auto stop connections on my hose and the pressure was dismal - I removed it and it made a huge difference.
Water companies are obliged by law to maintain a certain minimum pressure to a property.
Try the test suggested in the article below to see if your pressure is up to the minimum-

An expandable (fabric) type hose won't work with low water pressure - so avoid them. It relies and great water pressure to expand.
